Doctor Who: The Rumour Mill

As any regular reader of On-Screen will know, I'm keeping off finding out/revealing any big spoilers about the sixth season of Doctor Who as in the past that has spoilt my enjoyment of the show since none of the big surprises were surprises to me. Nevertheless, before we see the sci-fi return next month, I've taken a delve into the shallow parts of the sea of rumours beginning to form so as to get a couple of hints as to what exactly is coming. So, without further ado, here are ten teasers for Season Six of Who:
1. Episode names are rumoured to include The God Complex (Episode 1), The Rebel Flesh, Gangers (Eps 5 & 6), Demon's Run (8) and Little Shop of Horrors (11)
2. Pirates, astronauts, Oods and clones will all play a part at some point in the thirteen-episode run.
3. Sontarans and Cyber-Men were spotted on set at the filming for the Spring finale, Episode 7.
4. We can expect "harrowing and cataclysmic" choices for the Doctor and Amy in Episode 7 too.
5. The Silence that we were told in Series 5 would fall will appear in the America two-part opener.
6. James Corden and David Walliams are both confirmed to make appearances in the Autumn half.
7. "I work in a shop now" Could this be the Doctor speaking? Either way, it's in the James Corden story.
8. Could Amy and Rory be leaving the TARDIS temporarily? Maybe, according to set photos, but I doubt they will be gone for long given their popularity and also a companion departure has never been leaked before!
9. According to Doctor Who Magazine, we have seven weeks to go until the show returns, so we're talking Easter weekend. Apparently, both episodes of the opening two-parter will air on Saturday the 23rd and Sunday the 24th of April respectively, so that will certainly be a bonus!
10. A couple more teasers taken from DWM and trailers: "I wear a stetson now"; "There won't be a pub quiz on Tuesday because there won't be a pub!"; "What awaits the TARDIS at Zero Point" and more intriguing still "Pay attention, it's not really her" plus "The only water in the forest is the river"...
